"The air force is looking for me?"
Zhuang Jianye's first reaction after hearing this is whether there is something wrong with several airlines closely related to the army. You should know that the major buyers of Tengfei group's aircraft in recent years are united airlines, China Post and Northwest Airlines.
As for the overseas market, due to well-known reasons, the airworthiness certificate being applied for has been frozen by the United States and Europe. As a result, the two series of aircrafts, Takahara hawk and tm-9, can not be recognized internationally, resulting in a sharp drop in sales.
However, the impact on Tengfei group is not big. On the contrary, it has made Thai Royal aerospace industry company suffer a great loss. However, Thai Royal aerospace industry company is not a vegetarian either. Due to the relationship between Thailand and the United States, it frequently puts pressure on the United States. Therefore, since last year, the U.S. airworthiness certification procedure for tm-9 aircraft has been restarted, which makes Thai Royal aerospace industry company a little relaxed He took a breath.
However, the plateau Eagle series aircraft of pure Tengfei group pedigree is not so lucky, and there is no possibility of loosening up now. Therefore, in addition to a small number of orders from Nepal, the overseas sales volume of plateau Eagle series aircraft is basically zero, not to mention compared with those aviation manufacturing giants, just like the general small aircraft manufacturing company Tengfei group.
Fortunately, Zhuang Jianye took a step forward to catch up with United Airlines through the air force, and then expanded the cargo fleet of China Post and the commuter aviation business of Northwest Airlines border area through United Airlines, which stabilized the basic business of Tengfei group in the field of aircraft production.
So when people from the air force came to him, they thought that it wasn't the aircraft of these companies that had a problem. There were many similar things in the past two years. The most serious one was a highland hawk B, whose fuselage was seriously damaged when it forced to land due to mechanical failure. Fortunately, the plane was carrying freight and didn't carry passengers. In addition, the pilot handled it properly and didn't cause casualties .
Can Rao is so, or let Tengfei group fear unceasingly, quickly find out the reason, add safety design, and recall all similar models for modification.
After continuous adjustment and improvement, the mission readiness rate of plateau Eagle series and tm-9 aircraft has been maintained at a very high level in the past year, but no one can guarantee that the aircraft will not have any problems.
So Zhuang Jianye quickly put down his work, wiped his hands on his apron, quickly walked into the living room, picked up the phone, frowned and said, "Hello, I'm Zhuang Jianye. What's the specific situation? Is there something wrong with our plane?"
"No, Mr. Zhuang, this time only a leader named Jiang Liang came to see you." Assistant Xiao Zheng said on the other end of the phone.
Jiang liang?
Zhuang Jianye's frown deepened. As a classmate and friend of Zheng Quanli's military academy, not long after the disaster relief in Daxing'anling, Zheng Quanli took Jiang Liang to Xiping and had a drink with Zhuang Jianye, Luan Heping and Ning Xiaodong for three days.
Zhuang Jianye is naturally familiar with it. He says that it's not from the army. How did he get to the air force? Cross service transfer?
"Well, I'll be there after dinner." Then he hung up the phone and went back to the kitchen to be a chef. Soon, shredded green pepper tofu, stir fried meat, lettuce and lotus root slices, plus a green vegetable tofu soup, were ready.
After a simple bite, Zhuang Jianye said goodbye to his family who were preparing for lunch break and rushed to the factory area of Xiping factory.
It wasn't far away, and Zhuang Jianye was in the office area of Xiping factory. Before he entered the office building, several military vehicles came in, and then several officers in air force and army uniforms jumped out. The first one carrying the rank of colonel was not Jiang Liang.
Jiang Liang also found Zhuang Jianye for the first time, and rushed to Zhuang Jianye in three steps: "Oh, Lao Zhuang finally met you. I heard that you Tengfei group can make high-end aviation spare parts? You have to help us
Zhuang Jianye didn't expect that Jiang Liang, a rough old man who was engaged in armored assault, was full of questions about aviation spare parts. Jiang Liang also found that Zhuang Jianye was confused by his own words, so he pointed to the door of the office building: "go, find a place, I'll tell you more about it."
So soon they entered the gate of the office building and sat down in the conference room on the second floor. Jiang Liang gave a brief introduction to them.
It turns out that Jiang Liang did not cross the service, and Xiao Zheng was not mistaken, but the new branch of the army, which has just been established for two years, is really strange.
Army aviation, a young branch of the army just established in 1988, is a flying army with helicopters as its core.
Of course, the army air force at this time can't be compared with the air strike group with multiple aircraft, high mobility and strong assault decades later. Its personnel, equipment and configuration are still primitive.
Many of them were supported by the air force as a whole. Among the officers sitting in the conference room, several were wearing air force uniforms. It was obvious that they had just turned around from the air force, so that they didn't even have time to change their uniforms.
As for Jiang Liang, not to mention, he was transferred from within the army and served as the deputy head of a certain regiment of the army aviation corps in Southwest China. He was responsible for the daily training of airborne troops, the system maintenance of equipment and other non flight work.Speaking of Jiang Liang's regiment, as the backbone of the army's aviation force, a regiment of the army's aviation force in Southwest China is one of the only three regiments of the army's aviation force today, and the other two are all stationed in the B military region around the capital.
The reason why there is no other one is that a certain regiment of the army aviation in Southwest China shoulders the arduous task of transporting supplies to the Tibetan Plateau garrison.
Because of this, the helicopter equipped by the regiment is also the most advanced in the whole army aviation force, even in the whole army. That is the US made S-70 helicopter, nicknamed "Black Hawk".
This unit was transferred from the air force to the Army Air Force in 1988. As the backbone of the army air force, it continued to carry out the task of transporting supplies to the Tibetan Plateau.
There's no way. Although Youyun 6 can undertake part of the air transportation tasks, fixed wing aircraft are not as flexible as helicopters in point-to-point transportation. Especially those border posts located in high-altitude mountainous areas, let alone the 500 meter run, even the two meter long dirt road can't be opened up. Yun6 can't land even in cattle, so it can only be transported upward.
Because of this, the use of S-70 helicopters has not been reduced. On the contrary, due to the development of Tibetan areas and the improvement of border posts, the attendance rate has become higher.
The high attendance rate means that the amount of maintenance increases, and the consumption of related accessories decreases rapidly.
In the past, if the parts were low enough to a certain extent, say hello to the American suppliers, and the parts will soon be delivered. But now, Americans are looking forward to the collapse here, so that they can make profits. They not only withdraw all the funds, but also cut off all the supplies that can be cut off, including the spare parts of the S-70 helicopter.
After introducing the specific situation, Jiang Liang sighed: "now there are three planes lying on their nests. The chief engineer of the army has only a few planes that can fly to the plateau. If one plane is less, the transportation capacity to the plateau will be less. Lao Zhuang, I, Jiang Liang, seldom ask for help. I really beg you this time!"
